Noob's Installation Help - XBMC on 9.10 - DurhamDev - 2009-11-24 Hey all, I've searched the forums high and low for the answer to this, however, I came up empty. I believe that I've followed all of the XBMC instructions to the letter to install into the new 9.10 Karmic Koala build, and I have to admit I'm also a Linux newbie. I'm going to have to rely on your expertise here to point me in the right direction. From the instruction page, here: Quote:Now, as per the above, I changed "jaunty" to "karmic" for both lines, so they now read as such: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/karmic-ppa/ubuntu karmic main Once complete, I did not receive the GPG error it mentioned, but I still continued on to the next stage.deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/karmic-ppa/ubuntu jaunty main Quote:I did the above, and herein lies a question... I used the "gedit Text Editor" to save the following "xbmc-ppa.key" file: Code: [b]Public Key Server -- Get ``0x9f10e6ae9317790e ''[/b] Quote:Now that the repo and key have been added, install XBMC like any other program.Now, everything *seems* to be working now, and the program is found in the proper spot. When I click on it to run it, there's minimal hard drive activity, and then it stops. The program never starts. I just recieved a note that my post is too long, so I will include an error log dump in the next post... (continued) - DurhamDev - 2009-11-24 Hmm, as it turns out, I can't link the log, as it's too big. I'm not certain on how to physically attach it, but I can upload it to my website if it's required. Can anyone help me out here? Do I need to upload the log? Rick // DurhamDev - DurhamDev - 2009-11-24 Ok, I notice that my post has had 57 views, but I'm really interested in seeing what I should be doing in this case. I'm leaning towards the PGP key being bad, or something in my process, but I could really use a nice push in the right direction. Anyone? Rick // DurhamDev - DurhamDev - 2009-11-24 Ah! Maybe this is my solution! After reading this thread, I find an instruction that isn't on the standard installation page... It says: Code: 2) Add keys Now I read through my Error Log (you know, the one too long to post) and I'm sure I saw something about the code "9317790E" in there... So, it's possible (in my head) that it's looking for these keys which aren't being seen. I think I'll try what's mentioned in the thread, and see if that helps. Will post back. If anyone reads this, and agrees with me (or doesn't) I would really appreciate the feedback! Rick // DurhamDev - whoelse - 2009-11-24 Okay, as I understand, you have XBMC installed, but it does not start. But now, step by step: I think you just mistyped, but in your first post you have an error in the sources, in deb-src you mixed jaunty and karmic. Make sure that you have the right one in your sources list. The keys should not interfere with the installation of a program, as far as I know. It is just annoying that you have an error message after every update-check. As you have already found out, it might be easier to add the key via command line, but the commands you have found are for Jaunty. Check this page for the key under technical details about this PPA: Launchpad Except a possible mistype in the sources list, this should not interfere with the execution, but I am not the expert too. - DurhamDev - 2009-11-24 whoelse Wrote:Okay, as I understand, you have XBMC installed, but it does not start. Wow, you're right. Did I ever mistype that. They should have read: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/karmic-ppa/ubuntu karmic main Oops.deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/karmic-ppa/ubuntu karmic main I think you're right - I need to do a bit more digging, and stick with the command line interface if I can. I'll continue to check in and see what I can find out. Thanks for the info! Rick // DurhamDev - whoelse - 2009-11-24 Did you mistype here in the forum or on your PC? You had: Code: sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 318C7509 9317790E Code: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 91E7EE5E sudo apt-get update - DurhamDev - 2009-11-24 whoelse Wrote:Did you mistype here in the forum or on your PC? Actually, for that one, it was on the link I had posted above... So, someone else had made the mistake, however, it's awesome that I now have the proper info. Thanks again! Rick // DurhamDev |
